About this Item

EX-LIBRARY showing minimal treatments. Else, Near Fine: shows only very smudges to the the panels; a hint of 'crinkliness' to the the upper corner of the rear endpapers (perhaps handled with damp fingers or such) ; the binding is square and secure; the text is clean. Free of any creased or dog-eared pages in the text. Free of any underlining, hi-lighting or marginalia or marks in the text. A handsome copy, structurally sound and tightly bound, showing unobtrusive imperfections - and of course the library markings. Bright and clean. Corners sharp. NOT a Remainder or Book-Club. 8vo (9.5 x 6.35 x 0.85 Inches) . Indexes. Language: English. Weight: 19 ounces. First published in Russian in 1990. Hardback: No DJ 'as issued'. This volume of the Encyclopaedia contains two contributions; the first one, "Harmonic Analysis on Homogeneous Spaces", is written by V. F. Molchanov, the second one, "Representations of Lie Groups and Special Functions", by N. Ya. Vilenkin and A. U. Klimyk. Molchanov focuses on harmonic analysis on semi-simple spaces, whereas Vilenkin and Klimyk treat group theoretical methods also with respect to special functions, orthogonal polynomials and integral transforms. Both contributions are surveys introducing readers to the above topics and preparing them for the study of more specialised literature. This book will be very useful to students and researchers in mathematics, theoretical physics and those chemists dealing with quantum systems. ; Encyclopaedia of Mathematical Sciences; Vol. 59; Large 8vo 9" - 10" tall; 273 pages.

From the Back Cover

This EMS volume contains two contributions: the first one, "Harmonic Analysis on Homogeneous Spaces", is written by V.F.Molchanov, the second one, "Representations of Lie Groups and Special Functions", by N.Ya.Vilenkin and A.U.Klimyk. Molchanov focuses on harmonic analysis on semi-simple spaces, whereas Vilenkin and Klimyk treat group theoretical methods also with respect to integral transforms. Both contributions are surveys introducing readers to the above topics and preparing them for the study of more specialised literature. This book will be very useful to mathematicians, theoretical physicists and also to chemists dealing with quantum systems.
